Roman Catholic Priestess???




I dont think so. What a whacko.
Could you imagine what could be done if these nuts put the same fervor into feeding our children or providing clean water to the world?
But no, lets protect the world from those dangerous "Gays". Maybe she should spend her time writing the Pope instead of President Obama anyhow since she is defying the laws of the Church and parading around as an impostor of the Church.

Read the whole story on Huffington Post here 

Morning Star Farms

Another crazy deal. Just got done clipping the publix coupons I got when there this AM. In the turnstyle where the normal circular is there is a booklet of "summer" coupons, each has a morningstar farm coupon for 1$ off one. Get 2.
Sign up at morning star farms and you will be sent an email with a coupon link 1$ off one, print 2.
Got to the target printable site here and print one 2$ off 2 morning star farms products and Woo Hoo. 6$ off 2 products:) If you are getting the patty type selections and need buns to go with them also print two .75 cents off pepperidge farms buns coupons at the target printable site and combine with 2 coupons for .55 cents off that were in last weeks paper ( I always get two) and Publix has the buns on sale for $1.99 coming out to just .69 cents each and likely the morning star farms product will create an overage giving you the whole purchase free except for tax:)

Ummm I think something got lost in translation.

Deal of the Day


Winn Dixie has Super Pretzels(6count) on sale BOGO free.(2.99$) Use two .75 off coupons in last weeks paper get two boxes for 1.49$ or just 12.4 cents each jumbo soft pretzel:) In the freezer section!
~Anne

Free Baskin Robbins:)


Go here to get a coupon for a BOGO free 31 below ice cream treat until June 21st.


Like I said....


From an article posted on CNN.com Brent Wilkes is quoted as saying,

"If they just out of sheer ill-will ... try to block the nomination, that's going to have a big backlash in the Hispanic population," Wilkes warned. "And we won't have to do anything except sit back and watch them destroy themselves, because it's really going to be that bad."

Seems to me this is the MO of the GOP in general these days. Stupid choices and inexplicably suicidal moves are making them less and less relevant and more and more the party of the Palen-ites and other nut-jobs. Sadly, I think someone intelligent has put a gag over Michael Steele’s mouth this week so we may not be lucky enough to get a laugh out of his political ineptitude, but who knows, there are lots of other idiots out there ready to throw caution to the wind and put their well heeled feet in their mouths.

Rush is still fat...and still muttering the same crap.


You would think he could at least come up with some new lines or lift some more creative talking points from some Republican dweeb whose job is to sit in a room all day thinking up more eloquent ways to say foul things.
But no....the once very fat, then thin thanks to illiciet drug use,  fat once again talk show host isnt exactly creative enough to do such things so here is his take on Sotomayer :

"Do I want her to fail? Yeah. Do I want her to fail to get on the court? Yes. She'd be a disaster on the Court.

Do I still want to Obama to fail as President? Yeah, -- AP, you getting this?

He's gonna fail anyway, but the sooner the better here so that as little damage can be done to the country."-Rush Limbagh

Good Deal for the day

As I said before, we are working on making our money work harder, especially in light of the fact that hubby is working harder to make it by working OT these days. hard to ask him to pull a 12 hour OT shift if I am not doing all I can to minimize wasteful spending eh?

SOTOMAYER GETS THE CALL!



Sonia Sotomayer has been nominated by President Obama to be the next Supreme Court Justice, fulfilling his promise to add diversity to the court in an effort to more appropriately resemble our nation.

The Republican loons will likely come out with all sorts of incoherent rhetoric about her temperament or other issues they have imagined to be relevant but it is not only a losing argument but a dangerous tactic considering her Hispanic roots. The GOP has been bleeding Hispanic support since Obama’s rise to the public stage and it has not gotten any better under Mr. "that’s how I roll" Steele. Tread carefully you Republican strategists lest you drive away the last vestiges of Latino (oh and LatinA) support you may still have a grip on. You can’t win this one, wouldn’t it just be better to rise above, pretend you are thrilled, and make some flowery statement about the progress of Latin/Hispanic Americans? Be pragmatic for Gods sake.
